Joshua Zirkzee frustrated as Manchester United misses chances in Real Sociedad stalemate

Joshua Zirkzee

Manchester United left Spain with a frustrating 1-1 draw against Real Sociedad in the Europa League last-16 first leg, and Joshua Zirkzee believes they should have done more.

The Dutch-Nigerian forward found the back of the net but felt his side wasted too many opportunities to take control of the tie.

After the match, he shared his disappointment: “We have to be relentless [when we have] chances – we had enough of them today. We’re playing against a good footballing team, so it’s not easy. But in the end, we should have had at least one more goal.”

Zirkzee has now featured in eight Europa League matches this season, registering a goal and an assist. With the second leg still to come, United will need to be more clinical if they want to progress.

Next up, Ruben Amorim’s side faces a massive Premier League showdown against Arsenal at Old Trafford on March 9. Sitting 14th in the table, United faces a daunting task against a high-flying Gunners side currently second with 54 points.
